Gary– Is there any way to create a "depth map" as a rendered output? Possibly a red-scale map where the higher values (of red) represent objects that are closer to the camera, and lower (darker) values show objects farther back. This information can be processed and converted into a random-dot stereogram. I want to do an animation and covnvert it. Should be interesting to see how well the eyes can track moving objects while diverged– The full 3-d effect without glasses or any other viewing hardware! –John Wilson AT&I
